Fodor's Review:

The sense of history should be strong here, as this was the guild house of blacksmiths and barbers, founded in 1412. While there are time-burnished allurements—wood paneling, leaded glass, and tile stoves—the historic vibe of the main room is counteracted by the modern white ceiling and casements. To really channel history, take a peek at the Zunftsaal, a 19th-century banqueting room extravaganza. At your table, Zürich's meat classics (Geschnetzeltes, liver or steak with Rösti) come garnished with seasonal vegetables, and there's a considerable selection of alternatives, fish among them. The guild's own house-label wine is fine.
